An effort is currently under way to port the Firefox web browser to the Amiga operating system. This effort goes by the name Project Timberworlf, and is the latest in a long line of efforts to port Firefox to alternative operating systems. This raises the question: is Firefox really suited for these small platforms?

When I used BeOS I didn't care about how Mozilla felt in it. It gave a possibility to browse web pages quite normally. That's the main point. Probably it is easier to port a browser than to maintain a native one and keep up with a very dynamic web world. The only question is why firefox?
